PART III — NARRATIVE

State below in reasonable detail the reasons why the Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, N-SAR, N-CSR, or the transition report or portion thereof could not be filed within the prescribed time period.

On February 7, 2005, Flowserve Corporation (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing (i) certain SEC filing delays, (ii) the confirmation of the restatement of previously announced annual financial results for 2000 through 2003 and quarterly results during 2003 and the first quarter of 2004 and (iii) the existence of certain material weaknesses in its internal controls. The Company is working diligently to address and resolve these matters, as well as complete and file its amended annual reports on Form 10-K for the years ended December 31, 2000 through 2003, its amended second quarter report on Form 10-Q/A for the quarter ended June 30, 2003, its amended first quarter reports on Form 10-Q/A for the quarters ended March 31, 2003 and March 31, 2004, its second quarter report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2004, its amended third quarter report on Form 10-Q/A for

 

 

the quarter ended September 30, 2003, its third quarter report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2004 and its annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004 (“2004 Form 10-K”). The Company also requires an extended period to address the new requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act regarding its attestation as to the effectiveness of its internal controls, the analysis of material weaknesses in internal controls already identified and identification of any possible additional material weaknesses and its expected receipt of an adverse opinion from its external auditors on the effectiveness of its internal controls, all as set forth in its Report on Form 8-K furnished to the SEC on February 10, 2005, which is incorporated herein by reference. Due to the Company’s efforts in resolving the aforementioned matters, the Company is not able to finalize the financial statements and related information for inclusion in the 2004 Form 10-K. Accordingly, the Company is unable to file the 2004 Form 10-K within the prescribed time period.

PART IV — OTHER INFORMATION

(1)   Name and telephone number of person to contact in regard to this notification
             
Tara D. Mackey
   972   443-6610
 
        
(Name)
   (Area Code)   (Telephone Number)

(2)   Have all other periodic reports required under Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or Section 30 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 during the preceding 12 months or for such shorter period that the registrant was required to file such report(s) been filed? If answer is no, identify report(s).
 
    oYes x No
 
    The Company has not yet filed its second quarter report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2004 and its third quarter report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2004.
 
(3)   Is it anticipated that any significant change in results of operations from the corresponding period for the last fiscal year will be reflected by the earnings statements to be included in the subject report or portion thereof?
 
    xYes o No
 
    If so, attach an explanation of the anticipated change, both narratively and quantitatively, and, if appropriate, state the reasons why a reasonable estimate of the results cannot be made.
 
    The Company currently is uncertain whether there will be a significant change in results of operations from the corresponding period of the prior year. With respect to the periods being restated described in the Company’s Form 8-K furnished to the SEC on February 10, 2005, the Company currently estimates that the cumulative net reduction in net income for those periods should be less than $20 million and will primarily affect years prior to 2004. However, until the Company completes its review of its financial results for the year ended December 31, 2004 and fully assesses the matters disclosed in its Form 8-K furnished to the SEC on October 28, 2004 and in its Form 8-K furnished to the SEC on February 10, 2005, including the proper amount, classification and applicable periods of the restatement adjustments, the Company will not be in a position to determine the significance of any anticipated changes in results of operations.
